Pretty amazing

one guy told me he tows roughly 10-12K(not including weight of truck) very often. They have their own wiring system and are controled from a VSC(variable speed controler) where you can have them come on at a certain temp depending on where you have the temp probe installed in the radiator. The fans didn't change/affect the engine and how it runs at all. Other than the fans, and intercooler, i have a CFM+ large mouth and water injection. Here's a link to the flex-a-lite fans http://www.flex-a-lite.com/auto/html/272-diesel.html. Installation http://www.flex-a-lite.com/auto/278-98278.pdf

If it didnt affect it then why did you do it? Im thinking it should run a tad bit better without dragging the fan along.

the reason i did it is cause i got the fans dirt cheap from a buddy and i wanted more room. Maybe they did free up a few more hp, but if they did, you're not gonna notice a seat of the pants improvement.

maybe from when the fan is on... but how often is your fan on when your unloaded.

like said above...that's the difference that you might see/notice when they are fully engaged.

that's just a external tubed/finned oil cooler.

Exactly! I wonder if it'll cool some oil!

it's possible. You can get a billet filter cap and mount the cooler up front near the other coolers and have a line running from the cap then into the cooler...then another line out of the cooler then into the oil filler neck like how a oil bypass in run. And you can even incorporate it into a by-pass system.

probably not, but it'd be easier. You'll just hafta drill and tap a hole on top of the plastic cap and screw a fitting in there...then do the same to the oil filler cap. Just like how they are on the FS2500 and amsoil oil by-pass systems.
